Arn't games supposed to be fun ? I mean sure a challenge is good and a reward in itself, and no one wants everything handed to them on a plate but FF14 takes away every fun part of current MMO's and gives you a nice looking game with very little content in return. I dont care what any of you hopefulls say, this game after the first day or two is not fun, your just in denial about a game you have soo much hope for, give it two months and you will also be bashing this "game".

Apart from the serious lack of choice or content the game is broken, it relies on a server full of level capped crafters to make whats needed, then after 6 months there wont be anything worth crafting thats still needed, it will already be in-game and being resold from player to player.

And to those who say it will get better in a few months, whats the chances that there going to add 200% more content, a redesigned UI, more armor and weapon sets, better party functions, vast reductions in server lag, streamlined crafting, recipe corrections that make sense and dont require end game crafters to make lv10 boots, inventory overhaul, and more without waiting for an expansion to milk more money from your first.

To sum up, this game is exactly what SE wanted, a 100% time sink, the longer you struggle to play and craft the more money SE make, but this time they have shot themselfs in the foot, sure there will always be diehards playing but most of the customers they could of had will never play this more than a month, what makes it worse is the game is such an insult the the FF series. Like alot of you I wanted to love this game, I tried but theres too many flaws, and with no way they can be fixed without a complete remake this is just another game for the worst 20 MMO's of all time list.

Is it ? why did you make an account if not to voice your opinion ? Just because its my 1st post does that make it less important than my 1000th post ? you seem to be the pathetic one for pointing such a stupid thing out.

I was going to correct all the grammar and spelling mistakes, but there's just too many of them. I have seen so many post's like this, i am desensitized to them. There not even worth reading anymore. The only fun i was going to have with this post is gone.

FTFY = D

Anyway, I've been enjoying the storyline quests along with the guild-specific quests. There's a fair amount of content you haven't seen yet.

As for the timesink stuff...video games are a **** timesink. MMOs especially. They're meant to last for long periods of time. What did you expect?

Everything in life is a time sink, but if your paying for it then it should be fun or at least rewarding, this is neither. I hope KOTOR online is not going to be a let down like this or im going to lose all faith in MMO's.

So stop paying for it? Stop wasting your time on it? I don't understand the purpose of these hate threads.

To warn people who want to find out if the game is worth buying, I use the forums as a good way to decide if a games worth buying, if everyone is posting how **** a game is theres a good chance I wont be buying it, or you never know, with all the negative post SE might make some big changes and the game will get alot better, though I doubt it. Plus us human beings are a vindictive bunch and if we suffer we want to make someone else suffer to feel better.

Your first point would be valid if you gave a thorough unbiased review of the game. Instead you shared your opinion about how you think crafting is a time sink. That's not really a good way for a potential buyer to evaluate the entire game.
